Too many bad comments to organize.
 
Eh, much as I hate to say it I'm with AHH on this one. Industrialized Rome isn't unlikely, it's fantasy. You might as well ask what if Lake Chad never shrunk and Wakanda became reality. There's nothing to really learn with that line of thought aside from why it's a fantasy.

If you think it's fun or cool, all power to you, but you might as well as just write a fantasy novel.

Odd opinion.

I just don't think industrialization is really possible without medieval era developments in stuff like banking, joint-stock companies, abolishing slavery (of your own people), and long periods of peace.
The death of Rome is literally the reason for the rise of Europe.

It ain't rocket science, people.

Why do slap fights happen in every Youtube community eventually? Wouldn't be my first rodeo of "Youtube community I lurk in falls apart due to infighting".

That Emperor Tigerstar furry? Only problem is he probably hates US of Z. I won’t go so far to say he’d side with Cody, because despite long-time collaboration, Emperor Tigerstar is very much into the fantasy “what if X became Communist?” scenarios as well.

I’m low-key convinced Cody is just jaded and is trying to transition into his PointlessHub channel full-time and focus on movies/games (which are less controversial, more ad-friendly, and frankly more harmless fun for his growing Texas Trad-Catholic-Socialist family).

And not only that but PointlessHub is just a better channel.

Gets more views, is funnier, (likely) takes less time to make, can hit a wider variety of topics, and most importantly, talks about movies and whatnot BUT doesn't just do a plot summary like a lot of those types of channels do. Honestly, the fact that he still does alt history stuff is strange.

I avoided PointlessHub because it was AHH which is a channel I didn't particularly like and because "Oh by yet another media review channel." but after I gave it a shot I was genuinely impressed by how funny and well presented it was. It's a cut above most others in his field.

Honestly, I prefer PointlessHub over his main stuff since Cody seems imbed the fun and passion he has for the topic into those videos, unlike his modern alternate history stuff where he is far more detached.

I don't mind it tbh, though it's usually something I throw on while I'm cleaning my place. I do wish he'd finish his US State Anthems Tier List.

He does feed my orthobro mind with this scenario however:

"The right pretends at puritanism" and then the 'right' just doesn't want kids to be trooned out and millions of illegals in the country.

Leftists have completely hollowed out what Puritanical beliefs were. Instead of it being about people hating alcohol, rock music, and sex, now it is anything opposed to their beliefs. I don't deny that the Puritans have had a detrimental effect on the development of this country, but not everything stems from them.
